Police intending to beat Sex Offender, beat his brother instead.
A brutal beating at the hands of Sweetwater, Florida police was caught on a Ring Doorbell. Police looking for a man required to register as a sex offender, mistake his brother for their target.
Thankfully, the ring doorbell caught the beat down, so non-registrants can get a glimpse of how some police officers treat persons on the registry.
Can’t wait to see how the police department tries to play this one off!

The Police State!!
A person seeking to be a licensed cosmetoligist in Fl. is required more hours in schooling to graduate and practice their trade than every FDLE LEO or CO in the state of Florida.
Does anyone else see a problem with this?
The Spanish Moss Police Department is a real tough course….
Just one more thing to be paranoid about Isn’t life just grand!!
To begin with, unless you are continuing to sexually offend, please stop referring to yourselves and others as sex offenders. At refer to yourself and others as ex-sex offenders. There is mountain of importance in how we all refer to ourselves. What comes out of your mouth will be the very words of judgement against you! When Injustice becomes law resistance is duty!!!
The way that it was quoted by FAC was the correct way and to expand on that when referencing families, ‘families of those required to register.’ All part of reframing the message. People First.
Use “registrant” in stead.
@ Shleprock ,What resistence were you plan on doing? Because I had remember when I was prison . A few of us were were rioting about an inmate being killed in 1992 You know what they did they made fried chicken and served it. And the rest of us who stood up went to confinement and spent six(6)months in confinement while their D.O.C investigation took place so about 15 (fifteen) inmates who stood their ground for moral rights while the other 1500+ inmates enjoyed a nice fat juicy fried chicken. Hmm I guess you can “Once bitten ,twice shy” I see a lot of talk but no action. I am not Mexican nor Latino but I sure in the hell went down to Phoenix Az. Because my friends asked me to a non violent protest against Ex-Sheriff Joe Aprio and injustice. Guess what Sheriff Joe is out not because what I did or didn’t do It was because some people took action instead of just playing a keyboard warrior!!
I 100% agree. People need to stop using labels like that. Just because an authority figure tells you that you are called “xxxxx” doesn’t mean that that’s the name for your entire existence.
Jesus people, you’re human beings.
Indeed, sex offender is a label that they use to dehumanize us and to turn us into faceless monster for the rest of society to fear and hate.
The term is meaningless so yes – it should not be used except by hat mongers like Lauren Book and her daddy at their Nazi style pep-rallies.
If you have done your time and paid your price to society (innocent or not) then you are not a sex offender.
IT is very important psychologically not to apply the label to yourself, we are all better than that.
I know I am not I am just a Prisoner of war for having a younger girlfriend by 4 years and 3 mos age difference
305-221-0411 Orlando Lopez is the mayor, Ralph Ventura is chief of staff.305-552-9900 Chief of police Placido Diaz. Comments should also be sent to the folks that run the city. By the way I was not able to find the video on YouTube.
I find it almost impossible to strike an officer with your vehicle and not have a major man chase on your hands.
I’m very curious for more information on this alleged assault.
Absolutely correct! I just finished re-reading George Lakoff’s book “Don’t Think of an Elephant,” regarding the importance of properly framing an argument. I was once an Army officer. I would not now refer to myself as an Army officer, but as a former Army officer. Don’t buy into the sex offender mind set.
News on cbs tonight a st John’s county sheriff was left go tonigjt on lewd and behavior happen ten years ago they reported him now so what he is going to get
That county had the last few sex stings look out people hope people start open eyes and ears
This is appalling and disgusting. I am not choosing sides just saying there are actually a lot of good law enforcement people out there who risk their lives and do a good job. Unfortunately there are also a lot of officers who should not be in this profession. There is also so much corruption going on which our Florida government officials allow to continue. We need to forward this news story to the Attorney Generals office as well as the Governors office and we the people need to take a stand and continue to flood them with letters and phone calls…..hundreds a day until something gets resolved. It is a damn shame that this happened, and to be condoned by this police department. How could nothing get done because the elected officials would allow this sham to continue all because of a political farce. I never stand or promote violence to anyone. I am thankful I do not live in or near that county….but as brothers and sisters we must take a stand until something is done….this is so messed up. These officers who made this attack should be jailed and never ever be able to get these jobs back or any other job which would allow them to be working with people in any supervisory position. If we try, stand firm together and still get no results………I hope the fear of God Almighty would strike them..
